To understand why this happened and how to avoid the "dangerous sex" in the future, of course, necessary. But if it happened, the main concern of women is likely to be the prevention of unwanted pregnancy. It is not necessary to follow unverified alleged "people's" recipes, brew some herbs, to bathe in the sauna and soak in the hot tub. Some even believe that it is necessary to jump from the wardrobe. All of this is not effective and even dangerous ways. It is better to turn to proven medications, specifically designed to solve this problem.

Means of postcoital contraception



For such cases, the so-called "emergency contraception" - hormones that prevent pregnancy. The most famous among them are:

- Postinor;
- "Escape" (a modern analogue of the "Postinora");
"Genericon" or Agest".

The most "harmless" of them is "Agest", so if there is a choice, it is better to stay on it. Postinor – a preparation of the old generation, it is desirable to apply it at the very least.


To prevent unwanted pregnancy, you need to take any of these funds not later than 72 hours after sexual contact. This should be done on an empty stomach, i.e. not earlier than 2 hours after a meal. After application of the drug also should not eat within 2 hours.

If there is no nearby pharmacy



If unprotected intercourse has occurred, and the ability to immediately purchase the necessary pills for the next 72 hours there is no way the output still can be found.

If you are abroad, try to purchase pharmacies similar drugs. For example, such as Plan B, NorLevo, Levonell.

In extreme cases, can be used as emergency contraception regular contraceptive pills, the dose is only their needs to be a lot more:

- "Marvelon", "Rigevidon", "Miniziston", "Femoden", "Microgene" – 4 tablets;
- "Non-Dark", "Avedon", "Anovlar", "Bisekurin", "Buuren" – 2 tablets
"Overt", "Microlut", "Exclude" and other so-called mini-pill. The active ingredient in them same as the drug "Postinor", but in miniscule amounts, so you'll have to drink 20 of these pills to achieve the desired contraceptive effect.

Apply them must also, not later than 72 hours after contact 2 admission (between doses is 12 hours).

Of course, funds for emergency or post-coital contraception are not those medications that can be used regularly, they are harmful to health. After taking a woman may feel nausea, dizziness or headache, pain in the lower abdomen, some other unpleasant sensations. Often observed and allergic reactions. In addition, taking these drugs can cause hormonal imbalance and reproductive function of the female body. But use the "emergency pill" - a lesser evil, to avoid more serious trouble.
